Root for your home team: baseball on a hot streak
The onslaught continued in the eighth inning. The Jays drove home four more, with Emr hitting his second homerun of the game, sophomore right fielder Brian Youchak driving home two more on an RBI single, and with Pietroforte hitting a sacrifice fly. It was another Hopkins victory, this time by a count of 11-4.
Picking up his first win of the season, senior right hander Pat Steffee threw five innings of relief and only allowed one run. Louis Serrano took the loss for Ursinus, allowing four runs in five innings of work.
The top three performances for the doubleheader belonged to Emr, Pietroforte, and Youchak. Emr was 5-for-7, scored three times and had four RBIs off of two home runs, a double and a sacrifice fly. Pietroforte, four-for-seven with three runs scored and four RBIs, had two stolen bases, two doubles and a sacrifice fly. Youchak drove home two RBIs while scoring four runs himself, going five-for-eight.
The Jays returned to work on April 15th, scoring 13 runs en route to a 13-2 blowout versus the Red Devils of Dickinson College, to win their sixth consecutive game. Senior right hander Brian Duddie lifted the team in allowing only two runs in seven innings on the mound. The Jays hit the ball extremely well, and Youchak and senior Nate Adelman each contributed a home run.
Like always, the Blue Jays were on the board from the start. With a runner on first, Youchak hit his fourth homer of the year, giving Hopkins a 2-0 lead. With the bases loaded, Biner knocked a sacrifice fly, allowing one more to score the third run of the game. Sophomore second baseman Lee Bolyard drove home one more in the inning with an RBI groundout. At the end of the first inning, Hopkins had a comfortable 4-0 lead.
Dickinson was able to score a run off Duddie in the top of the second and off a solo shot by Nicholas Perkins, but the Red Devils were never in this game. Duddie just kept sitting them down, one after another, not allowing more than one base runner in the third, fourth and fifth innings, striking out four.
